This has been happening for at least a month, when my sims orders a meal with the waiter, the "waiting for food" icon shows but "orderering food" is still active. My sims will keep getting up to talk to the waiter even though the food was ordered. 

Also chefs still don't enter restaurant until after 2 hours game time. Owning a restaurant is frustrating because of this. This has been going on for a lot longer. I think dine-out is just broken.

  • This is still happening in my game, playing on a Mac. The worst thing is, it won't go away and it prevents my sims to do other stuff, eg. when my sims are low on bladder; they want to go to the toilet, the action starts but it is not really "working"; they are using the toilet but the need is not fulfilling itself. If I reset my sim and remove "order for table" action, it goes back to normal but this time the order crashes. Basically, they cannot do anything until the meal comes...

    Hi everyone,

    I'm having the same problem and it's a pain. If you want to remove the items that are stuck try resetting the Sim who has the problem. I am also experiencing that it takes forever for the food to be delivered to my Sims. Sometimes they are starving before the food reaches them.

    @Knotwise13 I didn't purchase the highschool pack as I'm doing what more people need to do..not giving anymore money to EA. The Dining Out bug has been going on longer for me. It was before the update. Sorry you are experiencing the same issues. 😕

    ‘Order For Table' interaction will properly clear from the interaction queue after the waiter delivers food to the table.

    Fixed in Patch 1.107.112/1.92
